Demo Impressions: The Gunstringer | VideoGameWriters

VGW: The Kinect might have its first huge hit that isn’t a fitness or dance title.

The Kinect is much like a frontier that has been left unsettled to this point. Sure, there have been a few strong colonies, like Dance Central, popping up here and there, but the Kinect landscape has largely been reminiscent to vast, open plains; empty, but begging to be claimed by a strong title with depth and innovation. Twisted Pixel, the independent studio behind hit Xbox Live Arcade titles like ‘Splosion Man and Comic Jumper, took this particular analogy to heart and decided to capitalize upon this void by releasing a Kinect game based in the Wild West.
